Bronze Dragon IEM Cable

There's a new Dragon in town - the Bronze Dragon for 2 pin in-ear monitors (IEMs). In a brief interview this week, Moon Audio founder and chief engineer Drew shared why his company created a new Dragon. "We noticed some IEMs sound thin and cold," Drew explained, "and that's easy to understand given the challenge of creating spacious and warm sounds from something plugged into our ears."

Searching For Neutral

The very best audio gear does the least Drew explained. "Coloring" or masking the original recording with sound artifacts or distortion is what audiophiles don't want. But there's an ironic problem - the less audio gear does, the more expensive it often becomes.

"Just like life," Drew said about to play Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon on vinyl through my dream system, "making audio gear requires tradeoffs."

By adding warmth and muscle to low end sound Moon Audio's new Bronze Dragon cables help 2-pin IEMs sound better.

Drew's Cable Obsession

Cables can be overlooked by headphones and IEM makers. "Focus for most IEM makers is creating great miniature drivers and crossovers," Drew explained. Headphones cables, often outsourced, can color or distort the sound.

"We care more about sound than our R&D costs," Drew explained. "Our focus is creating cables to help high-end headphones and gear sound better." Music and sound are a subjective experience. Personal preference plays a considerable role in what dragon is right for a customer.

The Right Dragons

As Drew shares in his Train Your Dragon video, each Dragon cable has "personality" and a mission.

Silver Dragon - Emphasis on mid to upper sounds so headphones soundstage feels larger yet more intimate like your head is a stage.

Black Dragon - Adds lower and mid-range depth, warmth, and presence.

Blue Dragon - Stays neutral and is best matched with neutral sounding gear.
